Data transfer

Updated on July 5, 2022

Transfer data outside of Pega Platform and between data sets or Pega Platform instances by importing and exporting .zip files.

Move data between data sets and initialize new Pega Platform instances by exporting and importing data set records.

  • Exporting data into a data set

    Export your data to prepare a backup copy outside the Pega Platform or to move data between data sets and the Pega Platform instances. A .zip file that you get as a result of this operation is a package that you need to use when importing data into a data set. You can export data from data sets that support the Browse operation excluding stream data sets.

  • Importing data into a data set

    Move data between data sets on the Pega Platform and initialize new Pega Platform instances by importing data set records that were exported from different Pega Platform data sets. You can import data into data sets that support the Save operation excluding stream data sets.
